3:51
awesome is this little check-in drop off
3:53
area over here

Paris pretty magnificent just say
4:00
really does blow my mind how impressive
4:02
of the theming
4:03
is at these casino hotels the roads are
4:07
kind of a mess down here they have a lot
4:08
of things rerouted a lot of stanions a
4:12
lot of cones a lot of fences a lot of
4:14
walls set up for the race that's
4:17
happening here in the upcoming
4:19
weekend I made it across the
4:22
road going into the bagio
4:32
all right so I kind of went in walked
4:32
around a little bit but a really nice
4:35
guy that works here works at the up at
4:36
the front and he goes let me show you
4:37
let me show you something interesting
4:38
took me to the top of the spa Overlook
4:41
where there was a scene in Oceans 11
4:43
where Julia Roberts walks down a
4:44
staircase they removed the staircase but
4:46
I was able to get a look at the top
4:47
point where that staircase was and just
4:50
a few days ago here in the conservatory
4:51
build what they is what they call it
4:53
they ended up putting up all the
4:54
Christmas decor so I'm going to kind of
4:57
show it a little bit of the the b-roll
4:59
of that that I was
5:00
walking around inside the inside the
5:02
area with all the Christmas stuff just
5:03
like oversized Christmas decor inside
5:07
the main little Atrium area which is
5:08
pretty much like on the outskirts of
5:10
kind of where the staircase that Julie
5:11
Roberts walked down in Oceans 11 not
5:13
really sure why they removed the
5:15
staircase but it was right here over to
5:17
where they do the seasonal stuff and all
5:19
that is which is kind of neat they also
5:21
had a a little small train like a
5:24
miniature train that went around the
5:25
Christmas tree and you know
5:28
different different items from the
5:30
Christmas season all adorning inside the
5:34
balagio I love the the front entryway
5:36
into the bagio too with all the blown
5:38
glass and uh the umbrella the umbrella
5:41
blown glass when you're kind of walking
5:42
into the check-in area but now I've
5:44
crossed back over the
5:46
street and you can see where they have
5:48
set up over here where the fountain show
5:50
is it's really tough to see the fountain
5:51
show now because they've created all
5:53
these Grand stands for the F1 race
5:55
that's happening here at the end of end
5:58
of next week or the end of the end of
6:00

10:15
there's a big drink right there on the
10:17
side of the
10:18
wall I like there's two shows here
10:20
inside this casino though all right back
10:23
on the Strip now going to walk in along
10:26
going to go across some of these Bridges
10:27
and just uh explore let Vegas trip a
10:30
little bit more try to do some things
10:32
they haven't done on this trip so far
10:34
there's the MGM Grand this is the wall
10:37
doorf Historia right here look at this
10:39
and you got the grand right over there
10:41
you got Gucci right here look at this
10:43
wow that's Hard Rock Cafe right there
10:45
there's also an M&M store and a big
10:47
Coca-Cola bottle right there but I want
10:49
to point this out this is the first
10:52
animated or cartoonish version of a
10:54
polar bear I've seen since I was in
10:56
Alaska the land of real Polar Bears this
10:59
one
10:59
seems a little more friendly than
11:01
probably a real polar bear in the frozen
11:03
tundra of Alaska would have been that
11:06
one's just chilling with a penguin right
11:07
there drinking of Coca-Cola right over
11:09
here on the corner of Tropicana Avenue
11:11
is where the Tropicana Hotel and Resort
11:14
Casino used to be for many years they
11:16
just tore it down the former Oakland A
11:18
are going to be taking that over at some
11:20
point in a few years and the the Oakland
11:22
a kind of have the same kind of a fate
11:24
and kind of same kind of realization the
11:26
Tampa Bay Rays are going through right
11:27
now I kind of want to talk about that a
11:28
little bit as well cuz the Tampa Bay Ray
11:31
started the campaign here to stay they
11:33
said we're here to stay they're going to
11:35
build the stadium they were going to
11:36
start breaking ground in January of next
11:39
year so 2025 they we're going to start
11:42
putting the shovels in the ground to
11:43
start building the stadium that the Rays
11:45
Tampa Bay Rays were going to be for the
11:47
next 30 Years playing in St Pete
11:49
basically right next to where Tropicana
11:51
Field is we're going to implode tropican
11:52
field build a new stadium which is
11:54
interesting because the Tropicana hotel
11:56
which is now where the Vegas a are going
11:57
to be playing in a few years was the old
12:00
Tropicana and the race currently until
12:02
the hurricane played a Tropicana Field
12:05
so it's kind of interesting Tropicana
12:06
dueling Tropicana but now I believe the
12:09
city of St Peter pelis county has voted
12:12
not to go 100% through with the opening
12:15
of the 2028 new stadium for the Rays so
12:18
the rays are completely up in the air on
12:21
where they are going to be playing next
12:23
year they're going to be playing at
12:24
Stein berer field where the Yankees play
12:26
play a spring training facility so going
12:29
to be a 2025 season but after that no
12:32
one knows it's going to be interesting
12:33
to see if the Tampa Bay Rays might leave
12:35
Florida and might leave the St Pete area
12:39
and I don't even know 100% if the former
12:42
Oakland A's the now going to be Vegas a
12:45
in a few years if that Stadium there is
12:48
even going to to appear but anyway I
12:49
just want to talk about that a little
12:51
bit also over on the corner here of the
12:53
ex caliber here and also New York New
12:56
York right there I hear the I hear the
12:58
coach going by well I did hear the
13:00
coaster big Statue of Liberty right here
13:03
got the coaster right over there nothing
13:06
like a good coaster at a casino you can
13:09
ride a coast show looks like you're in
13:10
New York you're not really in New York
13:12
but Lady Liberty is here as well I
13:15
didn't hear the coaster but I didn't see
13:16
it Go by I must have just missed it as
13:17
there were people were screaming going
13:18
over here's another angle of where the
13:21
Tropicana used to be now going to be the
13:23
Vegas a stadium if and when that ever
13:25
happens kind of looking at it from this
13:27
different perspective
13:29
right here also and then look back on
13:33
Lady Liberty from this angle and the
13:37
skyline of New York I'm not in New York
13:40
though in
13:42
Vegas you got and then ex caliber right
13:45
over here this is interesting look down
13:47
here at the bottom of this Tower there's
13:49
like a little like a little Hut like a
13:52
almost like a little gnome lives
13:53
underneath there wonder if there used to
13:55
be water down there because looks like
13:57
there's like a little dock that goes out
13:59
and stretches to the bottom of the basee
14:01
of that Tower right
14:03
there I'm in another monor rail station
14:05
looking over at
14:07
the former Tropicana Hotel property in
14:12
fact they still have the side
14:13
up right there they imploded it a couple
14:16
months ago a few months ago
14:42
I think like a massive beer
14:42
advertisement on the side of a pyramid
14:44
over there but then you also got the
14:45
Luxor pyramid or the M Luxor little uh
14:49
